Probe claw

[nsgallup]

Quick question,

Does anyone know of a mod that adds a claw for grabbing asteroids for small probe parts? I want to make a Rosetta replica but the 1.25 parts seem too big.

you could just make a copy of the claw and rescale it i guess?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Kerbal Space Program\GameData\Squad\Parts\Utility\GrapplingDevice

copy and rename the part.cfg file

open up your coppied and renamed file, under the line that starts with scale you can add

rescaleFactor = [size you want here] default is 1.25

so for instance rescaleFactor = 0,625 you would have a half-sized claw.

so as to not replace the original claw, please also change the line "name ="

to something like name = Graplingdevicesmall or name = Graplingdevice2

save when done

Alternatively you could use the TweakScale mod which allows you to change the size of things in-game, but I don't know if that supports the claw.
